Thank God! Looks like the FO might really be learning something. Anyone who wants Blatche on this team does not understand what it takes to put a winning "TEAM" together. Getting Blatche is something Isiah Thomas would do.

If we can't get a legit backup PF, I really think we should add Chace Stanback.

He's an undrafted nba free agent. Nobody even invited him to their summer league roster. He's an amazing outside shooter. Was one of the best 3 point shooters in college. He would be a great fit for the team.

Btw he plays SF and I consider him a sleeper

Here's his highlights against UNC this past season

but would you give him multi year deal if you have chance to start clean after 3 years with only shump and future draft picks?

I agree with you, not exactly someone you want to build your team around in the future but we may be in situation where we have to offer a 2 year deal since we don't have much room for movement until then. Hopefully he comes out and plays great this season

I think we probably could have held out, before we made the deal for Brewer. I wished we had sweated Pietrus or Delfino out and even if they had signed somewhere else and Brewer had signed someone else, we still could have brought in a guy like Matt Barnes. I don't think we have to get an adequate back-up for STAT signed yet, between the players that still are going to get amnestied and rookie FA's; there will be a guy out there that can back-up STAT.

We don't need to fill the last slot, and we can make another spot by dropping Copeland. Pietrus' agent supposedly came out and said he is not a vet min player and would not sign for that.

At this point, I'd rather drop James White than Chris Copeland. Copeland at least can score. White couldn't even do that in Summer League. Renaldo Balkman could get points in Summer League.... this guy won't crack the roster come training camp.

Delfino only has one current offer from the Rockets. Delfino is not satisfied with Houston offer and also joining a rebuilding team. Houston offered Delfino a two-year deal, with the second year an option.

We have enough players to keep the 1-3 spot secure for the season even with Shump out. We have really 4 guys in Tyson, Chamby, Thomas, & Stat that can see mins at the 5 spot. We really only have Stat at the 4 with Novak and Melo seeing mins in a small ball situation.

I dont feel Thomas will be able to guard quick pfs at this point and is really there in case 1 of one of our centers goes down. Many are big on Martin but we need a good balance of vets n youth, especially if they pan out, so I would go after Amundson.

We dont have a need for Howard after signing Brewer unless we cut either White or Copeland.

I am huge UNLV fan ever since the Larry Johnson era. The Running Rebels had a gemlast year in Chase Stanback. 6-8 215 pds, with a dead eye jumper, reminds me of Allan Houston, nice effortless shot, can get it off the dribble or spot up. He like Houston is not that gifted atheltically but neither is Ray Allen nor was Reggie Miller and Chris Mullins. he would be worth more of an invite. He also reminds me of brandon Roy a bit, check out highlights against UNC a top notch college program and he torched Barnes for 28 pts.
